I did not write down the presentation we were given by a wonderful rheumatologist who advised his clients to stay on 2.5/ 3 mg of prednisone.

My excuses, I should have written it down. Thanks you.

It was Dr Dasgupta, one of the leading experts in the PMR world. There is a link to his talk on the PMRGCAuk website
